A fully interactive classroom allows for seamless synchronous delivery to a large number of students not physically present in the classroom.

Sensors recognize presence of both central and distributed faculty and students.

Online classroom resembles closely the face-to-face classroom.

There are several online “breakout rooms” that allow for students (both in class and online) to work in groups.

Group work can easily be displayed to the entire class as model examples.

All work is archived for future reference.

Multiple projectors and visualization devices are operating—all of which can be displayed to the distance students. Distance students can swap images in and out as they decide which window should be primary.

A tracking camera can follow faculty and students, will have a smart zoom feature where the camera will focus on the current speaker.

Backchannel communications (e.g. chat, Twitter) are available to all participants.

External communications beyond the classroom (blogs, wikis, chat, twitter) are easily be aggregated and the collective knowledge is tagged and automatically collected in a searchable repository.
